Happy that I had the opportunity to visit @JesseCDean's lab during my PhD to gain new research experience, play basketball and find interesting new findings that have now been published here (also with Sjoerd Bruijn): doi.org/10.1016/j.humo… Poetic summary below ;) #one_tweet_a_day

We are excited to publish the article on the external validation of fall prediction models! Many studies use IMU gait features to predict prospective falls, but none has been externally validated, yet crucial. See more👇 #fallsprevention #aging #healthtech jamda.com/article/S1525-…

Every time you publish about how good your new algorithm is, without making said algorithm openly available in some sort way or form, a puppy dies. STOP KILLING PUPPIES!

Want to calculate gait events, and check them? We've had a tool for this for years, which I now also translated to Python, and made available for all of yous to use. Mohammadreza Mahaki even made some videos on how to use the tool. Feedback welcome! github.com/SjoerdBruijn/G…

New work from JinFang(金芳), Andreas Daffertshofer and me. In which we show that it's incredibly hard (impossible?) to predict whether an MEP will be elicited in a subject from the position, orientation and intensity of the MEP: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Examples now include calculating (+checking) gait events from - Centre of pressure data - Vertical ground reaction force - Kinematics - VU 3D model data structure - Foot markers - Vertical position and vel -Ap position

All examples are now also in Python. For reading C3D in Python, I used ezc3d by Pierre Puchaud, which was really simple to implement (and I might implement the Matlab version as well some day, instead of the code I have there now )

📢 Onderwijs en onderzoek zijn cruciaal om de grote vraagstukken van onze tijd aan te pakken! Toch bezuinigt het kabinet-Schoof €1 miljard op hoger onderwijs en wetenschap. Wij komen in actie tegen deze bezuinigingen! Teken jij ook de petitie? campagnes.degoedezaak.org/campaigns/stop…

Preprint alert! With amazing Msc student Raven Huiberts (looking for a job!) and Jen Davies , we studied involvement of motor cortex in gait with TMS. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Feedback welcome! This was a really fun collab, made possible thanks to The Royal Society grant!
